@squirrel yeah, there are people around who insist that cell phones will give everyone cancer because RADIATION

@troubleMoney @squirrel In that shitty Herzog documentary Lo and Behold there are all those people that live in a cellphone and wifi free town because of their fears over this.

That's when I stopped watching.

@squirrel @ajroach42 ah, that sucks

Probably best to just not tell her about all the stuff you use that uses radio of any sort

@troubleMoney @ajroach42 i basically reply with like "oh cool can i have your cordless phone and the router you use to watch netflix on your tv then?" and then she realizes the uses "computers" just as much as i do and shuts up until next month when a new fearmongering chain mail comes out

@squirrel @ajroach42 and her cell phone, and the microwave, and the lightbulbs, and the sun

I mean really the sun's the thing that's putting out the most radiation out of all that

@ajroach42 @squirrel actually, wait, the sun actually does give people cancer through radiation, scratch that one
